Problems on here AGAIN
Snail slow !!!

I have done some basic tests.....
The server is in america - More IP hops = Slower connection.
Average 480 millisecond per packet average.
This doesnt include the server response times
Pinging of BBC.co.uk gives us 10 times quicker connection @ 48 milliseconds average
(This server is in england)
Scoobynet IP and Passionford IP address are the same 67.201.17.106
Whilst this may not be a speed issue in itself, you have at least 2 very busy websites being served through the same portal and it is likely there is sharing of servers, routers and/or database connections.
I havent checked if any other of the many IB sites are the same.
I wont mention the search engine bots that have been given free access or the huge amount of adverts or the duplication of adverts on the same page

At least AJ's choice of prestige transport is better than petrucci's

Its been un useable for me as well total joke they moan when you dont put it in the right room but when its in there you get a answer saying they have took note of the problem! Its not as if the site isnt making money its full of shit ads
Unuseable for me, slows my machine down and starts hammering my memory useage......as soon as i disconnect from pf its fine, and fine on other sites/forums.
Its a damn site quicker on my iphone than my laptop......there seems to be something sinister going on, too much stuff embedded in the pages to do with adverts and tracking no doubt

i emailed the PM on this earlier his reply was:
St3v3, Thanks for bringing this to my attention,there's a better chance of the Lib Dems coming to power before PF gets sorted!!
And yes its slow for me also, 1 post at a time in each thread !!

It's useless. Using my iPhone is quicker on here than my laptop. (I think someone else said that too)
I think we should all use the report button on the first post in this thread to flood the mod section with reports!

The problem is they don't know what the problem is, so there is your problem! 
If the owner of a website can't find the issue there is something seriously wrong there in itself.
I won't be paying another Ł10 for a shit slow website. I reckon the owner of IB should sell his Yacht and invest some fucking money.
Edit: What they should do is take it back to a barebones forum, this in my opinion will help establish what exactly is causing the problem, maybe there just isn't quite enough MSD advertisements

exactly all the poxy adverts are slowing it down, if i wanted a cheap holiday or a better phone deal i'll look on google not on a car forum FFS
There was a post on 6 speed a few months ago showing IB's average price they pay for a site , and also there profits for the last few years. Trust me the owner wont need to sell any yacht.

I like how in the first post it also says:
Q: How will the acquisition help 6speeodnline.com?
A: The main benefit will be having more infrastructure and technology resources behind the site. Better servers and hardware will mean better performance for the site and admin tools. And more technology resources will mean faster bug-fixes, quicker turnaround on site changes and more frequent updates in site software, like vBulletin or photo-posting applications.

For me I find its brilliant through the course of the day but from 5pm-11pm its really slow, most likely to do with the pure amounts of people online at once...
